CBB DFS: DraftKings Afternoon Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (12/14/24)

CBB DFS lineup picks DraftKings NCAA daily college fantasy basketball

Today's Afternoon DraftKings CBB DFS lineup picks for 12/14/24. Mike M's top daily fantasy college basketball sleepers to build winning NCAA DFS lineups on DraftKings.

We have a little lighter afternoon with the Army-Navy game going on in football, but we still have some good matchups. We have Louisville and Kentucky from Rupp Arena. We have UC Irvine heading up to Corvallis.

Next, we have a great matchup in Champaign with Tennessee visiting Illinois in an Orange-out inside of State Farm Arena. We have Grand Canyon and Georgia from the third leg of the Holiday Hoopsgiving in Atlanta. We close out with Marquette in Dayton to take on the Flyers.

This article will provide you with my daily fantasy college basketball lineup picks on DraftKings on 12/14/24, starting at 5 p.m. EST. I’ll give multiple player suggestions at guard and forward, aiming to highlight one option at the salary scale's high, middle, and lower levels. Good luck, RotoBallers.

Today's DraftKings Guards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks

Kam Jones, Marquette ($10.3K)

Jones is an elite-level scorer and he was even with Tyler Kolek here last year. Where he has really grown this year is passing. Jones does everything except for block shots. He's the only player on this slate who can consistently score 50 DraftKings points.

Malachi Smith, Dayton ($7.3K)

Smith, like Jones, is an elite playmaker. We are going to see a passing clinic in this game. Smith isn't a consistent scorer like Jones is, but any player who can come close to 40 DraftKings points against Iowa State has my attention. If Smith is on, his output can be as high as anyone. His problem is inconsistent scoring.

Jaxson Robinson, Kentucky ($7K)

Robinson might be the only consistent player on the entire Kentucky team. He has at least 20 DraftKings points in all but the Duke game. He is now playing minutes in the mid-30s, making him a constant threat for mid-30s DraftKings points as well. It's not often you get that total consistently in this price range.

Collin Moore, Grand Canyon ($5.4K)

Moore has cleared 24 DraftKings points in each of the last four games since his foul-plagued disaster against Arizona State. This is a de-facto road game for the Antelopes, but I like the fact that they're not afraid to play anyone. This team has some talent. Moore isn't much of a scorer, but he is an excellent defender.

Also consider: Zakai Zeigler, Tennessee ($8.7K); Chaz Lanier, Tennessee ($7.8K); Tyrin Lawrence, Georgia ($7.1K); J'Vonne Hadley, Louisville ($6.3K); Ray Harrison, Grand Canyon ($5.2K); Posh Alexander, Dayton ($4.4K)

Today's DraftKings Forwards - CBB DFS Lineup Picks

Michael Rataj, Oregon State ($9K)

Rataj came up just short of another double-double in a blowout win over Idaho. This game against Irvine may not stay close, but Rataj should still pile up enough stats to pay off the price.

Andrew Carr, Kentucky ($7.2K)

We'll excuse a tough game against Clemson. Their size inside ruined Carr in that game. Louisville is a more guard-oriented team so we should see Carr back up to his usual tricks. He's a constant double-double threat and has at least 30 DraftKings points in four of the last five games.

Bent Leuchten, UC Irvine ($5.2K)

Leuchten is going to have problems with Rataj. He's likely not going to get close to his 32.9 DraftKings points per game average tonight. However, I feel like he's priced down a little too far here. Leuchten should still be able to score in the 20s for DraftKings points, making him a strong value play.

Parsa Fallah, Oregon State ($4.3K)

Fallah has turned into an efficient scorer in the last couple of games against easier opponents. That's what's on tap again tonight. Fallah is 21-for-30 from the field for 50 points over the last two games. Why would they have him stop shooting now?

Also consider: Tomislav Ivisic, Illinois ($9.2K); Asa Newell, Georgia ($8K); Nate Santos, Dayton ($7.4K); Lok Wur, Grand Canyon ($5.1K); Devin Tillis, UC Irvine ($4.9K)
